The word "cathedral" comes from a Latin word cathedrawhich means "chair or throne". The cathedral is the building which houses the chair or throne on which a bishop or other prelate in the Roman Catholic church presides. In Catholic teaching, a papal statement which is made "ex cathedra" or from the throne is considered infallible, according to the Council of Trent.
